I Have Been Feeling Underutilised for 13 Years, Says Arjun Mathur

“You somehow work with that (feeling). It’s my job to just keep trying to make them aware of that potential, which happens when a show like Made in Heaven comes along. There are so many variables that go into making a show click in such a big way, from the script to producers and cast and crew. So, sometimes it takes time for other people to value you the way you value yourself, or sometimes it takes outside people to value what’s right in front of you for you to be able to value it. But at the end of it, I can’t speak for filmmakers. I’m just an actor waiting to be cast.”

Arjun has bagged an Emmy nod in the Best Actor category alongside Billy Barratt (Responsible Child), Guido Caprino (1994), and Raphael Logam in (Impure season two). In Made in Heaven, his character of Karan Mehra is not defined by being gay — he’s a fully fleshed out man who just happens to find love with another man.
